Mobile search traffic is attributing over 65% of all traffic to clients with
local landing pages

traffic at less than $0.10 per click from organic search using local SEO
Less than 10% of retailers have optimized their mobile finders for best
user experience and search visibility
Less than 11% of mobile ads in Bing are mobile optimized
Optimizing mobile pages for both search and user experience gives you
the best chance of garnering very low cost mobile search traffic.

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Accurate, complete business information = (NAP, store hours, map listing and directions, in-stock inventory, customer reviews, localized promotions/coupons and more). FMJ data: 12,208.89% YoY mobile traffic - in 2015 mobile traffic is 67% of overall site traffic up from 12% in 2014.
  2. FMJ QUESTION: How important was mobile when you were thinking about tackling local search? Jodie’s answer: Mobile is a crucial part of local search. When customers are looking for a particular store on their mobile it’s likely that they’re in the area and looking to make a purchase. Implementing mobile responsive local search pages was just one way for us to better serve those customers and give them a better experience. You definitely don’t want to miss out on mobile-local customers because, as previously mentioned, they tend have a greater intention to make a purchase. WARREN TO NOTE? At our customer summit in May this year - Bing shared that 70% of conversions happen within 5 hours of a Bing mobile search
  3. FMJ QUESTION: are you observing similar trends on your mobile pages? Jodie’s answer: For mobile specifically, we’ve seen double the growth in our navigation actions like “view location”, “search for location” and “view map” on our local search pages, which would be our I-Want-To-Go moments. And we’re also observing growth in our I-Want-To-Buy moments with a 124% increase in revenue coming from mobile devices.
  4. Proper canonical linking – meta tags Embedded media capabilities – make sure videos can play FMJ QUESTION: how important is mobile as part of your overall digital strategy? Jodie’s Answer: We’re definitely moving towards a mobile-first approach at Fred Meyer Jewelers. Last year we saw a huge increase in our mobile traffic, especially in Quarter 4, and now our mobile traffic pretty much equals our desktop traffic. This trend can also be observed on our local search pages where we’ve seen a 55% increase in the amount of traffic coming from a mobile device. I’m sure most of you are aware that Google recently released their “Mobilegeddon” algorithm update that penalizing sites that don’t have a mobile friendly version. All of this means that it’s no longer possible for us not to optimize our experiences for mobile. would be a very costly mistake.
  5. FM: Before working with Rio SEO what were your experiences updating your listings for such a large brand? Jodie’s answer: It was a nightmare! We’re part of the Kroger network of stores so getting even simple changes made to our store listings was a very bureaucratic process. Now that we have Rio, we can easily update the listings ourselves within a simple interface and the changes are instantaneous
  6. FMJ QUESTION: How do you respond to comments/reviews and social engagement? Jodie’s answer: We actively monitor our social channels and make sure we respond to our customer comments on a daily basis. We’re just a small team so we can’t always respond to our reviews as quickly but we definitely see the value in it. It’s important, not just for reputation management, but also to develop relationship with your customers. If someone writes a positive review then it’s great if you can send a reply back saying “hey, thanks for the review. we’re pleased you enjoyed your experience” as it shows the customer you care about their opinion. Similarly, if someone writes a bad review, you want to show that you’re doing all you can to make it right for them or they won’t be coming back ever again.
  7. FMJ QUESTION: How do you respond to comments/reviews and social engagement? NOTE - With a wedding segment, some additional niche sites are also incredibly effective at creating opportunities for feedback and engagement and are important to monitor for mentions. FMJ also does well on Pinterest with a follower rate of return on each pin of: 1 pin to 1.38 followers.
  8. FMJ QUESTION: are you observing success in conversion events on mobile pages? Jodie’s answer: We are, we’ve already seen a 49% increase in on-page conversions but what we’re really interested in measuring is the in-store conversion rate since we know that people who make mobile-local searches are highly likely to purchase in-store. We’re currently working on a promotion where we’ll offer a unique promo code to customers visiting our local search pages for them to use in-store. We’ll then cross reference the number of redemptions against the amount of traffic we get to the pages while the offer is live. That should help give us an idea of the in-store conversion rate of our local search pages. WARREN TO NOTE? while on-page is important, make sure that all media buys contain ads that are mobile Optimized, at our customer Summit in May Bing Ads noted that only 11% of Bing ads were mobile optimized- a huge miss considering the traffic shares we are observing for search.
